Cast announced for Scouse Dick Whittington at Liverpool’s Royal Court

Dick was lying in his bed when a scary hairy fairy came to him in a dream. If he were to go to London then he would become Lord Mayor! How brill is that? But hang on… London’s 212 miles away and it’s full of divvies. Why not become Lord Mayor of Liverpool instead! It’s a lot nearer. 

The Royal Court Christmas Show returns with The Scouse Dick Whittington.

Written by Kevin Fearon and with Musical Direction from Howard Gray the team that brought you The Scouse Cinderella, The Scouse Snow White and The Scouse Jack & The Beanstalk are promising the best Christmas show yet!  This year, the Christmas show is directed by Mark Chatterton, who has almost two decades of festive frolicking under his belt. 

With live music, topical gags and an array of grown up, robust language, the Royal Court Christmas Show is an institution of Scouse seasonal celebration. Regularly selling out, the show comes at the end of a record breaking year for the Royal Court, which has seen it mark its 100th show. 

Kevin Fearon, Executive Producer Liverpool’s Royal Court.

“The Christmas Show is an institution, it’s the start of the festive season and it’s a date marked in calendars all over Liverpool and sometimes even in Wirral. We’re delighted to bring Mark into the Royal Court family for Christmas as he’s known for the kind of festive fun and troublemaking that’s par for the course here.”
